Artificial intelligence in gynecologic and obstetric emergencies
Abstract
Background Artificial intelligence (AI) uses a process by which machines perform human-like functions such as
automated clinical decisions. This may operate efficiently in gynecologic and obstetric emergencies. We aimed to
review the role…

Aspirin increases the risk of acute kidney injury in critical patients with chest trauma: a retrospective cohort study
Abstract
Purpose Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are increasingly utilized in trauma patients, particularly
those with critical chest trauma who are susceptible to significant blood loss, leading to renal hypoperfusion. Acute
kidney…

Assessing artificial intelligence-generated patient discharge information for the emergency department: a pilot study
Abstract
Background Effective patient discharge information (PDI) in emergency departments (EDs) is vital and often more
crucial than the diagnosis itself. Patients who are well informed at discharge tend to be more satisfied and experience
better…

Association between prehospital oxygen
saturation and outcomes in hypotensive
traumatic brain injury patients in Asia (Pan-
Asian Trauma Outcomes Study (PATOS))
Abstract
Background It has been shown that blood pressure (BP) and peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) influence the
outcomes in Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) patients. This study aims to determine the association between prehospital
SpO2 and…

Atypical Lemierre’s syndrome in a tuberculosis
survivor: facial abscess and brachiocephalic
thrombosis mimicking disseminated infection:
a case report
Abstract
Background Lemierre’s Syndrome (LS) is a rare but potentially fatal syndrome that usually starts with a throat and
neck infection and leads to blood clots, septicemia, and thrombosis of the internal jugular vein.…

Bioelectrical impedance analysis
for evaluation of adverse cardiovascular
events in patients with acute coronary
syndromes: a prospective cohort study
Abstract
Background Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a noninvasive method for assessing body fluid composition
and may offer prognostic value in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).
Materials In this longitudinal cohort study, we…

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation-inducedn consciousness in an elderly patient: a case report in the prehospital setting
Abstract
Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) aims to limit hypoxic injury by providing oxygen to brain and heart tissues
during cardiac arrest. There has been an increase in reports of patients exhibiting signs such as eye opening, limb
movement,…

Challenges in diagnosing and treating distal common bile duct adenocarcinoma: A case report with literature insights
Abstract
Background Adenocarcinoma of the distal common bile duct (CBD) is a rare and aggressive malignancy that is often
diagnosed at an advanced stage owing to nonspecific symptoms and delayed presentation. This case report details
the…

Changes in prehospital emergency medical
services dispatch mission patterns and their
public health implications during the
COVID-19 pandemic in Beijing, China
Abstract
Background The COVID-19 pandemic placed unprecedented strain on global prehospital emergency medical
services (EMS), particularly in megacities, acting as a stress test for health system resilience. However, comprehensive
analyses of its…
